Oceanlineayr Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Gutted for big Anton, he was having an absolute flying start to the season and will be a huge miss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railwayend Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 The next two games will tell us a lot about our season . We are now in win ugly territory, scrape two 1-0 victories despite all our injury problems and it’s safe to say a title challenge is underway . Two draws would suggest it’s more like the play offs at this point . It’ll be interesting to see what happens today . The team selection may give us a clue , Bavidge doesn’t start and it could be we are chasing a new centre forward . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he really has potential to have a good career, I’m not talking EPL or anything because if he was that good he would probably have been stolen away already. It’s feel as if McInnes wants to keep him but the worst thing for Wales, for me, would be to play 300 minutes of top flight football over the season whilst leading the line for the reserves. A season having a chance to be a regular starter in the Championship does feel like the natural next step for him. If Dowds injury is confirmed I think it would be a good move for Wales. He'd get plenty of game time in a side which is creating chances and with a management team that look like they know what they're doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case, hopefully the club can get him seen by Gordon Mackay in Glasgow. He's pretty much the top guy for ACL injuries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 1 hour ago, AyrExile said: We might not have our best team on the pitch but our squad is very healthy compared to most so we should be able to cope. A big problem in this division over the last few seasons is teams getting a few injuries and going on long a run of nil points. This will happen again and a lot of teams will be left relying on young players whilst we have enough cover to loan ours out. Dowds will be a big loss but Bavidge came with some good reviews so now needs to step up. Think the management team have done their homework around rotation and positions having enough cover so over the season we will be fine Problem with a long term loss is that it turns your depth into your starters and now there's no depth at the position any more. I imagine they'll try to stay in the race until January and decide whether it makes sense to invest in reinforcements at that stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timelines all seemed like worst case scenarios, so it was easy to think someone was trying to be funny. Sadly it seems the joke is on us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callum-ayr Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 So that’s Mutch/Stone/Devlin/McAvoy/McMann/Tomlinson/Murphy/Rus/Dowds all injured Brown really irritating me with the goalkeeping situation. Surprised McGeady hasn’t rocked today, maybe next weeks keeper? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Grim looking bench. These injuries are going to hit us at some point can only get away with it for so long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 (edited) Tomlinson isn’t going to play, it makes complete sense to get him out on loan instead of him wasting away on the bench as we have some injury issues for a few weeks. We also have another wide player on the bench anyway. Plus McKenzie. Edited September 21 by No_Problemo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Why are we shuffling keepers? This has the potential to become problematic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
